I've had a look at Python too, Malcolm, and found Python Languages Syntax Cheat Sheet. Under basic arithmetic it says i=a%b e.g. 11%3 2 I cannot make sense of that. I'll just hope that we can get an emulator and stick to SBASIC I know. But if RS have 220,000 outstanding orders, it'll be some time before I get one! Bryan H.

Under basic arithmetic it says i=a%b e.g. 11%3 2 I cannot make sense of that. That's the modulus operator, as in C language. The binary operator a%b returns the remainder of the integer division between a and b. It's equivalent to the MOD function in SBASIC. For example, 11%3 returns 2 because 11 divided by 3 gives 3 and remainder 2. It's a very powerfull operator to perform modular aritmethic.
